Mighty name we pray in Jesus mighty name we pray we're still
4:18
going to pray one very sincere prayer and I'd like you to pray
4:24
it and let it be from the depth of your heart.
4:27
Are we together? The Bible says he that told you
4:33
have asked for nothing. He says ask and you shall
4:37
receive that your joy may be full, your joy may be full, your
4:44
joy I like you to pray and say, Father visit me.
4:48
Everything you have declared over my life that is yet to be
4:52
made manifest. This is November, but I still.
4:54
Trust you. Open your mouth and pray.
4:57
Don't look around. Pray your eyes on Jesus.
5:01
Everything. You are not a God that speaks
5:04
alone. You are a God that performs.
5:07
You are not a God that declares alone.
5:09
You are a God that performs. I have heard you speak.
5:13
Let me see you perform. I have heard you speak.
5:16
Let my eyes, let my hands handle your speakings.
5:20
Let it be life, let it be reality to me.
5:23
Go ahead and pray. A family following across the
5:28
globe. Make sure you are praying.
5:30
Hey, la paratos caprega baraca tociata.
5:33
Job said. I have heard of thee with the
5:35
hearing of the ear. But now my ICF thee, Lord, the
5:39
things I have heard you say about my destiny, the things
5:43
I've heard you say about my destiny.
5:46
Let me experience a performance even now, even now.
5:52
Shake Pala caparado capora sitia, even now.
5:56

6:19
healing. Let me see it manifest.
6:22
You have spoken about a new season for me in the Spirit.
6:26
Let me see it manifest. You have spoken about my family.
6:30
Let me see it manifest. You have spoken about my
6:33
finances. Let me see it manifest.
6:36
Oh I trust you. You are a great God.
6:39
Charlie Cabarrato cabrata Cabarrato siata a believe.
6:44
I pray someone who is looking beyond the challenges that
6:48
brought you here, look to Jesus and declare.
6:52
If he says it is within his power to make it happen online,
6:56
go ahead and declare. I trust you.
6:59
This is November, but my faith is alive that you can visit my
7:03
family. You can give me a testimony.
7:06
You can turn my morning to dancing, my sorrow to joy.
7:15
Let my life capture the evidence of grace.
7:18
Let my life capture the evidence of mercy.
7:21
Let my life capture the evidence of your goodness.
7:25
Let my my life capture your benefits one more minute.
7:30
You are praying, say paraka tosh caligra taka para cosiata.
7:37
Even now for my family, even now for my ministry.
7:41
You're praying even now for the sick patient, Even now over my
7:48
job, over my career, even now over my destiny.
8:08
Hallelujah, Hallelujah. Let me tell you the truth, it
8:15
pays to trust the Lord. The Bible says they looked unto
8:19
Him and their faces were lighted.
8:22
They looked, they looked unto him.
8:25
When you set your eyes upon Jesus above and beyond every
8:30
limitation, for as long as Peters gaze was on Jesus, it
8:35
didn't matter what happened. His left and right, the storm
8:39
was boisterous, but he was still standing.
8:41
But the Bible says when he took his eyes away from Jesus and
8:45
began to consider the situation, he began to sink.
8:49
He began to sink. Your stamina, your stability is
8:53
in your ability to look onto Jesus.
8:57
Look and leave, my brother Lee, look to Jesus Christ and leave
9:06
this record and in his word, Hallelujah.
9:11
It's only that you look and leave.
9:16
I've got a message from the Lord, Hallelujah.
9:21
A message unto you. I bring this recorded in His
9:27
word, Hallelujah, it's only that you look and leave.
9:34
Look and leave, my brother, Leave.
9:39
Look to Jesus Christ and leave. It is recorded in His word,
9:46
Hallelujah. It is only that you look and
9:51
leave. We look to you tonight.
9:58
Oh God, you are the fountain of life.
10:02
It is in your light that we see light.
10:06
We look to you because when we look unto you, our faces are
10:11
lightened. When we look unto you, you roll
10:14
the shame, the burdens. When we look to you, we find
10:18
life. When we look to you, we are
10:21
changed into the very image, even as of the begotten.
10:26
When we look unto you like a maid looks onto her mistress, we
10:30
find help and we find mercy. Tonight, oh God, we pray that as
10:35
we look upon you, may you look upon us in the name of Jesus.
10:40
Look upon us with mercy. Look upon us with kindness.
10:44
Let your word come to change. Let your word come to build.
10:49
Let your word come to transform. Let your word come to lift.
10:54
Let your word come to heal, Let your word come to restore.
10:59
In the name of Jesus, our hearts are opened and we ask that you
11:03
will bless us. To Jesus be all the glory, Amen
11:07
and Amen. Walk to three people, greet
11:10
them, tell them God bless you and it's good to see you in the
11:15
House of God. Are you appreciating?
11:18
Someone, it is good to see you in the House of God.
11:22
Thank God I'm not finding you in the police station.
11:25
Thank God it's not a Mortuary. I am happy that we're sharing
11:29
fellowship in the House of God and to Jesus be all the glory.
11:36
Please be seated. Thank you, Jesus, I rejoice in
11:43
my heart every time I prepare to share the Word of God with us.
11:49
This is the only way I know to be a blessing.
11:53
This is the only way I know you can give.
11:56
Give money and that will bless, but it will be temporal.
12:02
You can give wise counsels. They can succour the pain of the
12:06
moment. But when you teach, you truly
12:10
empower. When you teach, you enlighten.
12:13
When you teach, you set people on a course for a victorious
12:18
life. When you teach, you share out of
12:21
that which God has put within your spirit, and you will
12:24
produce signs and wonders out of anyone, anyone at all.
12:30
Hallelujah. As always, my commitment is to
12:35
help you make sense of your life and your destiny, and in order
12:41
of priority, to help you know the Lord, to help you love Him
12:45
truly, and to help you leave for Him.
12:48
But that whilst you are about loving the Lord and living for
12:50
Him, you have an opportunity to experience what it means to live
12:56
a victorious life, to be a victorious Christian by any
13:00
definition. Satan, notwithstanding the
13:05
context from which you were born, notwithstanding the
13:10
failures of yesterday, notwithstanding the beautiful
13:14
thing about the Word of God is that it is an equalizer and
13:19
equalizer Without the Word of God.
13:21
It is clear that some people are advantage either by reason of
13:26
the families that they came from, the nations they were born
13:29
in. Are we together?
13:31
But the moment you introduce the Word of God to the equation of a
13:35
man's life, every other disadvantage dies immediately
13:39
because you have brought in a factor that neutralizes
13:43
everything that would have left that person defeated the Word of
13:47
God for you. So you may be crying, lamenting
13:51
over very legitimate reasons as to why your life may hitherto
13:56
being a portrait of a failure. But as the Word of God is
14:00
introduced, you see, you may not see the changes immediately.
14:05
Only a foolish farmer source a plants a seed today and by
14:10
tomorrow he comes with a bag and a sickle ready for a harvest.
14:14
No matter the soil, no matter the technological support, when
14:19
he plants that seed, he knows that there is something called
14:23
patience. He will allow the soil to act on
14:27
the seed. He will allow the seed to die.
14:30
And even when the seed has begun to produce, he can come and cut
14:35
short the potential for a very great tree through impatience.
14:39
Some of you, your lives are already bodied, they're already
14:42
producing, may not have been producing fruits, but it's
14:46
hopeful for you to know that a great tree is growing and one
14:49
day that tree will become so fruitful, so fruitful.
14:55
You will never believe that it was once a seed that was
14:58
planted. Isn't it amazing that everyone
15:00
of us here was once a seed in the womb of his mother?
15:04
We have people in this ministry who are so tall, so able bodied.
15:09
You wonder if it was five of them that came together and they
15:12
were combined as adults. But no matter how big, no matter
15:16
how tall it was, a seed reminds me of your destiny.
15:21
May look small, but there is an ability acting upon that seed.
15:27
And with every passing day you see, you measure time in the
15:31
spirit, not by the chronological passage of time.
15:34
You measure progress by every time you hear the word of God.
15:38
So you mark your calendar to victory.
15:41
With every arrival of the Word of God.
15:44
You are growing your date. You are shortening the distance
15:47
between your starting point and your point of fruitfulness.
15:52
The more committed you are to the ministry of the world and
15:55
other spiritual exercises, you are accelerating your journey to
16:00
being fruitful. Are we together now?
16:03
This is very important. Most people don't know why they
16:05
come to church. Others come to church to see a
16:08
man of God. Others come to church waiting
16:11
impatiently for the service to be so that they can have moments
16:15
of counseling. In their minds.
16:17
They think that the counseling sessions are greater than the
16:21
ward sessions. Others are just there for the
16:23
ceremony just to ease the guilt of not sitting back at home when
16:27
they should be in church. Are we together?
16:31
Every time you come to the House of God, it's important for you
16:33
to know that God has prepared for you a feast of fat things,
16:37
Among them, the capacity to access light, light that leads
16:41
to growth, light that translates to victory.
16:44
Let me tell you the truth, there is nothing the devil can do
16:48
about a believer who finds the path to victory.
16:53
The domain of Satan ends when ignorance, when darkness ends in
16:59
your life. For as long as you are in
17:02
darkness, Satan has dominion over you.
17:06
So the way to really break the dominion power of Satan is not
17:11
just to assume you are free, assumed liberties, not liberty.
17:16
A prisoner can assume he's out of the prison.
17:18
He's still in the prison. Are we together?
17:21
But you can have true liberty, he says.
17:23
And ye shall know the truth. Not ye shall want the truth, not
17:28
you shall assume you have found the truth.
17:30
When you know the truth, the truth has within it programmed
17:35
within it, the power to make you free.
17:38
The truth makes freedom. So every time you find a man and
17:41
join liberty in any area at all in.
17:45
Any. Area Just know that his liberty
17:48
is a testament that he has found truth.
17:52
Sustainable liberty is proof that you have found the truth,
17:57
you have received the truth, listen, you have engaged the
18:01
truth, and you are now reaping the dividends of that spiritual
18:05
investment because like God, everybody is a farmer.
18:10
You have learned this, and the Bible says that you can sow to a
18:14
soil called the Spirit, you can sow to a soil called the flesh,
18:18
that they that sow to the flesh will of the flesh reap
18:22
corruption, death in all its ramification by any definition.
18:27
And those who sow to the spiritual of the Spirit reap
18:30
life everlasting. So what you do with your seeds,
18:36
that becomes your concern. I've told you that your destiny
18:40
is at the mercy of the kind and the quality of decisions that
18:44
you make. Ultimately it is up to you.
18:46
The decisions that you make, the assignment of a man of God and
18:51
the assignment of the teaching ministry is to guide you with
18:54
sufficient knowledge, spiritual knowledge 1st and then knowledge
18:59
of the laws of life, so that now being equipped with sufficient
19:04
knowledge, you can make quality decisions.
19:08
Hear me again, you can make quality decisions.
19:12
No matter how anointed a man is, he cannot decide your destiny
19:16
for you. He will equip you with the
19:18
truth, but eventually you are the one who is going to have to
19:22
make that decision, whether to remain a failure, whether to
19:25
remain a success. That leads me to a thought that
19:29
I just wanted to point out before we go to the war tonight,
19:32
I was contemplating and I found something that I wrote.
19:37
I don't know when now, sometime back during my, you know,
19:41
personal meditation. Sometimes when I'm meditating on
19:44
the word, I just pause a bit and just recline and think how true
19:50
the things I'm studying or the things that I'm learning.
19:52
And sometimes I'm tempted to just Scrabble a few things.
19:55
And here's what I wrote. I said here that you cannot
19:58
improve in life and destiny until you become brutally honest
20:04
with yourself. You cannot improve in life and
20:08
in destiny until you become brutally honest with yourself.
20:14
The greatest form of deception is self deception.
20:19
The greatest form of deception That means you get to a point
20:22
where you are lying to yourself. In self deception, you can never
20:27
improve in life and destiny except and unless and until you
20:33
become brutally honest with yourself.
20:36
The meaning of that is that the day you really sit down to
20:39
address matters in your life is this working, not assumed
20:45
results for as long as you still carry imaginary progress.
20:50
You know, there are people who live in an illusion.
20:52
I didn't know when I started ministry, honestly.
20:55
I used to hear that people literally live in a world of
20:58
illusions and it didn't make sense to me.
21:00
But now haven't got a beat in leadership and ministry.
21:04
I can tell you there are people who live in a world that is very
21:07
real to them, but it doesn't exist.
21:10
The medical persons who call it delusion, they literally are in
21:14
a world that does not exist. It's like a psychology version
21:18
of taking drugs. So they live in a world where
21:22
many things happen in that world, but none of it is real.
21:25
And they know it's not real. They live like that.
21:28
They are making progress in their imagination.
21:32
They are building houses in their imagination.
21:34
They are growing and making tremendous progress.
21:37
And once in a while, their reality reminds them that they
21:40
are still joking. Are we together?
21:44
You cannot improve until you become brutally honest.
21:50
Is my spiritual life working? So my finances working?
21:54
If yes, why? If no, why not?
21:59
You see, whether you are making progress or not, your confidence
22:03
is not in the result. Your confidence is knowing the
22:06
pathway that leads to that result.
22:09
It is a very terrible thing to stumble into accidental success.
22:13
There is such a thing as accidental success.
22:16
It is usually not sustainable. It carries a semblance of
22:21
progress for a while until you find out you did not lay hold on
22:25
the principles that makes for sustenance.
22:30
The second thing I wrote here part of my contemplations.
22:34
Then we get to the word seek competence before visibility.
22:39
Seek competence before visibility.
22:44
Seeking visibility without competence will leave you having
22:48
the destiny of the fig tree that Jesus caused.
22:53
You must seek competence before visibility.
22:56
Our world is full of people who are incompetent in very
23:00
disturbing ways, and yet they have an obsession for
23:04
visibility. When you sell nonsense to your
23:07
world, this world, you see, has. And and and.
23:12
They have such an unforgiving heart towards incompetence.
23:16
When you show up and they give you a chance and mark you for
23:19
incompetence, it would take the grace of God to erode that
23:23
memory from them. Anytime they see you, they
23:26
assume this one serious person is here.
23:28
Again. Let me tell you the truth and
23:30
and I mean this no disrespect in the minds of people.
23:35
They have arranged preachers according to different
23:37
categories. Very serious.
23:40
Serious. Are we together less as fair
23:44
jokers? And maybe evil do us.
23:50
So by the time they see people, there are some that their
23:52
presence is just entertainment. There are others that, well,
23:55
they are not really sure. It depends on the sermon.
23:58
There are others who they know. These people are always serious.
24:01
If they show up, they are showing up to bless.
24:05
I'm praying for you. May you not join a nonsense
24:08
category in people's mind because of incompetence, but
24:11
every time people see you show up with a ministry or any
24:15
ramification, they know that you are there to bless.
24:18
Are we together now? Praise the name of the Lord.
24:21
Seek competence before visibility.
24:24
In fact, quite honestly, when you spend time to seek
24:28
competence, you may not need to seek visibility.
24:31
It will naturally gravitate you because not everybody is that
24:36
serious. Not everybody is that
24:38
determined. Not everybody is that
24:41
meticulous. Are we together, that resilient
24:44
over becoming excellent and competent?
24:47
I learned this early life from Doctor Miles Monroe.
24:50
His definition of leadership changed my paradigm that
24:53
leadership is not about leading people.
24:55
In fact, in many regards, it's not even about leading yourself.
24:58
Leadership is about discovering your gift, refining it, then
25:03
deploying it to serve so selflessly that people give you
25:07
a gift called loyalty. So you are focused on deploying
25:14
your gift, discovering it, deploying it now that it's
25:18
refined and serving people sincerely, serving so selflessly
25:24
that you will not even know when they have corporately accorded
25:27
you this gift called loyalty. You are influential to the
25:31
degree to which you have end. Take note of that word and the
25:36
loyalty of people. Are we together now?
25:40
You earn the loyalty of people through your depth of
25:43
selflessness, the level of value that you pour yourself like a
25:48
drink offering. When you become a nuisance to
25:51
people, you will never, never, never command loyalty.
25:55
They will not allow you to influence them because they know
25:57
you are a taker, they know you are a parasite.
26:00
They see you as a nuisance, A disturbance to their becoming.
26:03
I'm praying for you in the name of Jesus Christ, everything that
26:07
makes people perceive you as a nuisance, as a disturb.
26:11
I'm praying that light will upgrade you, light will upgrade
26:16
you to a point where you will say I am a blessing indeed.
26:19
You believe that shout Amen. Praise the name of the Lord.
26:24
Let me give you the last thought I wrote here.
26:32
Not the real gift. God has given you.
26:35
Find out what really stands you out and stay there.
26:40
No, the real gift God has given you.
26:43
Not the gift you want, the one God gave you.
26:46
There are many things we admire that God did not give us.
26:49
It is not part of your equipping.
26:51
You have seen it beautifully displayed in the life of someone
26:54
and you wish you had it. There's no point wishing when
26:57
you check in words. There is always something God
27:00
has given you. When you see another person's
27:02
garden, well, well what they call it now, well watered well,
27:09
well manicured and fixed well, it is not by default.
27:15
So when you see your bushes scattered garden, you choose
27:19
your responsibility to fix it, to make it enviable.
27:22
Are we together? Many people are about admiring
27:25
the gifts of people. Every gift in his raw state is
27:29
not desirable. Every gift, I don't care what it
27:33
is, in its raw, unrefined state, it's not desirable.
27:37
If you ever see any gift in ministry, in business, ability
27:42
to sing, ability to do whatever it is, let me tell you it is
27:45
because time, energy, effort and grace has been invested in that
27:50
gift to build it to a point where it is now desirable and
27:55
worthy of being rewarded. Hallelujah, there are many
28:00
people you admire today. In all honesty you are by far
28:03
more gifted than them. The only thing is that you have
28:06
not taken time to look inwards to acknowledge.
28:09
I like Philemon one verse 6. It says that the communication
28:13
of your faith might become effectual through the
28:16
acknowledging of every good thing that is in you in Christ
28:20
Jesus, the communication of your faith.
28:23
He says that it would become effectual by the acknowledging.
28:29
You have to acknowledge every good thing.
28:31
What did God put in you? God gave me beauty.
28:34
Lord, I thank you for this gift. I acknowledge not everybody has
28:38
this gift to this degree, and I don't take it for granted.
28:40
You have given me profound intelligence, acumen for memory,
28:45
for, you know, intellectual things.
28:47
I received that grace. I acknowledge it.
28:50
You have given me a command for leadership.
28:52
The Bible says he gave on to 1/5 talent.
28:55
He gave to 1/2 talent. Matthew 25, he gave to 11
28:59
talent. At least to everyone he gave
29:02
something. Are we together?
29:08
So make sure you find out what God has placed within you.
29:11
Everything you celebrate today came as a result of discovery,
29:17
refining and deploying. You discover, then you refine,
29:23
then you deploy and you patiently stay there until
29:27
people vet your value and see it needed.
29:30
Let me tell you this. I have taught you that you are
29:32
only rewarded to the degree to which people acknowledge your
29:36
value as being useful to their lives.
29:39
And sometimes it will take a while for them to see how useful
29:43
you are. Did you hear what I said?
29:45
It will take a while. Just because you know how
29:48
valuable you are does not mean the people around you know how
29:51
valuable you are. It will have to take a while.
29:54
Sometimes you will need to keep selling that value patiently.
29:57
Sometimes it is time and chance that will revolve life to a
30:01
point where they will need you. There are people today carrying
30:05
things. They have become millionaires
30:07
and billionaires. They have become great people,
30:10
inspirations to many. Do you know even when people did
30:13
not acknowledge them, they still had that value.
30:16
It's just that life had not yet happened to make their value
30:19
needed. So just because you are tempted
30:21
serving your value and it seemed to be ignored, it doesn't mean
30:25
your value is useless. Yours is to keep refining it and
30:28
stay. Stay until the day that God
30:34
brings the people you see, that brings the people around your
30:38
life. And when they see you, they will
30:40
take you like a treasure and say we have been looking for you, we
30:44
have been searching for you. Now that we have found you will
30:46
not let you go. Are we together now?
30:50
They say because of the ointment.
30:51
So do the virgins love thee. There is an ointment, there is
30:55
grace, there is value you can carry and people you do not
30:58
know, like the Queen of Sheba, they will run after you and hide
31:02
their pride and say, now that I have found you, it took years to
31:05
search for you and now that we have found you, we will
31:08
inconvenience ourselves. We will make do with whatever is
31:11
still not yet working in your life and we will stay because we
31:15
have found that God is with you. I'm praying for you in this
31:18
season in the name of Jesus, because I prayed this prayer
31:21
many times. Let me try tonight for someone
31:23
who did not receive it the last time.
31:25
All those who need what you carry, all those who can
31:28
celebrate what you carry, all those who can reward what you
31:32
carry, may my God gravitate them to your life.
31:36
All those who need what you carry, all those who can
31:40
celebrate what you carry, and all those who can reward what
31:44
you carry. I'm saying it again, May my God
31:46
gravitate them to your life in the name of Jesus Christ.
31:53
When you find those who need what you carry, you will be a
31:56
happy person. I tell you your first joy is
31:59
serving something that is needed, serving grace,
32:02
information, truth, ability that is needed and useful, and then
32:07
the satisfaction that comes from making an impact in the lives of
32:11
people. I have taught you here refer to
32:13
my teaching. What seekest thou I taught you
32:17
that fulfillment. There is a psychology to success
32:21
and fulfillment, and a true fulfillment is predicated upon
32:25
meeting certain intrinsic human needs #1 significance.
32:29
This is not my teaching. It's still part of my
32:32
contemplation. We're getting to my teaching
32:33
now. Are we together?
32:36
Significance. That is the first human need
32:40
everybody craves for significance #2 variety.
32:45
People crave for variety. That's why when another iPhone
32:48
comes, you suddenly hate what you love the day before, because
32:52
there is a passion in people for more.
32:54
Unfortunately, the side effect of having an appetite for
32:58
variety, if untamed, leads to covetousness.
33:02
Are we together? You will always want more,
33:06
always want more till it kills you.
33:09
You must get it to a time in your life where you can say
33:11
enough. Praise the name of the Lord #3
33:14
The third psychological need of all men is growth.
33:18
People want to grow, they want to grow.
33:22
When a woman gets pregnant after six months, she's happy.
33:27
Are we together now? What is the difference between
33:29
the protruding stomach that is as a result of cancer and the
33:33
protruding stomach that is as a result of pregnancy?
33:36
All of them lead to your stomach protruding.
33:39
But on one hand, the woman is dancing, on another hand, she
33:42
said, Lord, this team must go back.
33:44
The difference is an awareness that there is growth happening
33:47
within her. Are we together now?
33:49
The growth that is as a result of a cancerous cell is
33:52
dangerous, is deadly, but the growth that is as a result of a
33:55
baby within the mother's womb is a great blessing.
33:59
Growth #4 What do people crave for desperately?
34:04
Significance. This is particularly true with
34:07
men, all people, but the male gender significance where you
34:11
hear a man say, do you know who I am?
34:13
That's what he's trying to say. Doesn't matter who he is.
34:16
He may not even know who he is himself.
34:18
If you ask him, OK, who are you? Are we together now?
34:24
I am the son of so, so, so and so.
34:26
I'm a director of this and that. That house is my own.
34:29
Do you know who I is? Just craving for significance.
34:33
Hallelujah significance, it's very powerful.
34:37
So when you acknowledge people, we have a chairman of so, so, so
34:41
and so in this place. And ladies and gentlemen and all
34:44
those MC, they know how to massage the ego.
34:47
Ladies and gentlemen, without any further ado, please, let's
34:50
give it up for XY. You see the person trying to
34:53
manage Hallelujah. May your world celebrate you.
35:02
Those who don't like you, they will keep crying every day, but
35:05
As for your destiny, you will keep going forward.
35:09
Hallelujah, praise the name of the Lord, growth, then
35:15
significance. What else do we crave for?
35:19
Impact, impact, impact, impact. All men desire a life that is
35:26
impactful. Sit down with a number of us,
35:30
sit down with a drug addict, sit down with someone who is giving
35:33
to alcoholism and tell him why is your life like this?
35:37
If it's not under that influence, he would talk to you
35:39
sincerely. We say, even me, it's not like I
35:41
really like this thing. So as stubborn as they are,
35:44
something within them is crying to make meaning with their life.
35:48
That's why you can give them a job now and say, OK, I will give
35:51
you 100 naira. Fix these.
35:52
Blocks. And they would do it because
35:53
something within them wants their lives to count.
35:57
It is a terrible thing for an individual to live your life and
36:00
it's not counting, it's not making any difference
36:04
whatsoever. Are we together now?
36:07
Very, very important. When these factors at work in
36:11
your life, you will be a very fulfilled person.
36:13
I taught you in the series What Seekest Thou that the only gift
36:18
you can give yourself is fulfillment.
36:21
Success is not your gift. Success comes by you serving
36:24
orders, but the only thing you can give yourself is called
36:28
fulfillment. It is the satisfaction that
36:30
comes from knowing that you have lived or are living your life
36:34
effectively, serving the purposes of the Kingdom, and
36:38
being a blessing to humanity. We call it fulfillment.
36:41
It's an art. There is an art to fulfillment
36:46
and there are many successful people I've seen in my life who
36:49
are not fulfilled. It's why people can commit
36:51
suicide with billions in their accounts.
36:53
They are successful, but they are not fulfilled.
36:58
Hallelujah. Are you ready for tonight?
37:00
Now, Father, I'm ready to receive.
37:03
Go ahead and pray in one minute and then we go to the teaching
37:06
tonight. Every moment in your presence is
37:12
for my growth. Every moment in your presence is
37:15
for my lifting, for my transformation.
37:17
Now your word is about to come yet again.
37:21
I open up my spirit. Wisdom is about to come.
37:24
My destiny is about to change. You will never be the same.
37:37
You've touched His grace, your life must change.
37:43
You will never be the same. You've touched His grace, your
37:49
life must change. You will never be the same.
37:56
You've touched these grapes. Your life must change.
38:01
You will never be the same. You've touched these grapes.
38:28
My life must change. My life must change.
38:37
I've touched your grace. I've touched your grace.
38:46
My mind must change. My mind must change.
38:55
I've touched your brains. I've touched your brains.
39:05
I will never be the same. I've touched your brains.
39:11
My life must change. I will never be the sick.
39:23
Hallelujah tonight's teaching. Sit down please.
39:27
God bless you. Tonight's teaching is a very
39:31
thought provoking re examination of the principles, the practices
39:38
and the pathways that you have chosen to adopt as far as your
39:44
passion towards destiny actualization is concerned and I
39:48
want you to join me. We want to do a probe into the
39:53
principles and the practices that you have chosen to ignore
39:57
or chosen to adopt as far as becoming in every ramification
40:02
is concerned. The intent of this teaching
40:04
tonight is to challenge you. So that if in the course of this
40:09
discussion you find out that you have been following a path that
40:12
is inconsistent with your desire that you obtain grace
40:16
immediately to make AU turn, many of you are going to be
40:19
learning from tonight's teaching that you are speeding off the
40:23
opposite direction to victory. Are we together now that whilst
40:28
victory is this way, you are already gallantly and some
40:31
arrogantly on their way against the direction of victory?
40:36
The Spirit of God has brought this teaching tonight to help
40:39
you, to remind you and for others to caution you, to help
40:43
you make AU turn so that in partnership with the Holy Spirit
40:46
you begin to make a triumphant journey into a destiny of grace
40:51
and a destiny of glory. I'm teaching tonight on a topic
40:54
that I titled the Road Map. The Road map.
40:58
I want to show you the path to ever increasing glory.
41:02
The Road Map. Blessed be the name of the Lord.
41:05
The road map 3 scriptures very quickly Matthew Chapter 7 where
41:11
we got our text for tonight from verse 13 and 11 Matthew chapter
41:16
713 and 11 the road map Jesus is speaking and he said enter ye
41:22
into the straight gate. He said for wide is the gate and
41:28
broad is the way that lead to destruction.
41:32
He's speaking now Jesus and many there be which go in there.
41:37
Can you imagine wide is the way the gate and broad is the way
41:43
that leads to destruction. He says many for whatever reason
41:48
are following that path. Verse 14.
41:51
He says because straight or narrow is the gate and narrow is
41:57
the way which leadeth on to life and few there be that find it.
42:03
Many years ago I used to think he was talking about heaven and
42:06
hell, but I got to find out that the way to the Kingdom is not
42:11
narrow. The way to the Kingdom is Jesus.
42:14
Jesus said I am the way. Are we together now?
42:17
Yes, this was talking about a reality that is multidimensional
42:23
and we want to pick out one of such dimensions as a compass
42:27
that will help us. Job chapter 28 I believe from
42:30
verse seven and eight. Job was speaking by the Spirit
42:33
and he said there is a path which no fowl knoweth.
42:41
That means even though they have an advantage of altitude, the
42:44
paths should not be a miracle or a wonder for the fowl like the
42:50
eagle, because by reason of the advantage of altitude they are
42:54
able to see even parts that humans cannot see.
42:58
And yet Job is saying there is a path which in spite of the
43:02
altitude that advantage that the fowl the bird of the air has,
43:08
and the vultures eye that they are not able to see.
43:11
It was 8, he says. The lions whelps have not
43:16
trodden there. You know, they call the lion the
43:19
king of the jungle and I've watched a number of
43:22
documentaries on lions. They are very.
43:24
Bold principles of the Kingdom. Many people are priding in
43:28
finishing Bibles here and there, and that is wonderful.
43:31
But the scope of their understanding, they are very
43:34
narrow and limited. You discuss with them and you
43:38
know that these people do not know God nor His ways.
43:42
My son, give me your heart, he says, and let your eyes incline
43:46
or attend onto my ways. Genesis chapter one verse one in
43:53
the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
43:56
That is not necessarily maturity.
43:58
Children do that in Sunday school, but they may not be
44:01
matured. You can quote that before
44:03
situations and they will say nonsense.
44:06
There is no light. Light comes out of knowledge.
44:10
Knowledge itself is not light. Light is revelation that comes
44:15
out of knowledge. Knowledge is the raw material
44:19
wherein you draw revelation from.
44:22
Are we together? Ephesians after one when you
44:26
read from verse 17, the Bible talks about revelation in the
44:30
knowledge, revelation in the knowledge, revelation in the
44:34
knowledge, revelation that resides within the knowledge.
44:40
Like you get groundnuts, peanuts, so the the shell is
44:43
there with everything, but you crack it open and then you
44:46
remove the actual groundnut inside.
44:48
That's how it is. So knowledge comes, but you have
44:51
to open it up and extract the light component out of it.
44:55
That's why many people read Bible stories, they read
44:57
parables, but they cannot get understanding There.
45:00
I'm teaching you how to grow spiritually.
45:02
Your hunger, your prayer life, your words study life, but then
45:08
your passion to acquire useful revelation that translates
45:12
translates to dominion. Are we together?
45:15
Next, your passion for corporate fellowship.
45:19
If your passion for corporate fellowship is missing, you
45:22
cannot grow spiritually. There are things that God will
45:25
not show you in the secret place.
45:27
It is when you come to the House of God under a corporate
45:30
anointing like this, there are dimensions of intelligence
45:34
impartations that you. Receive.
45:38
Are we together? What is the next index for
45:41
measuring spirituality? Service, service, service in all
45:46
your becoming spiritual. You are not truly spiritual if
45:50
you are not serving in the House of God and ultimately serving
45:54
the purposes of God. So don't tell me I am spiritual.
45:57
Don't tell me I am growing spiritually.
46:00
I will ask you this. I will test your hunger.
46:03
What is your hunger for God? Fast is your hunger for money.
46:07
Fast is your hunger for other things.
46:09
Do you know you should be hungry?
46:11
And hunger is a general principle that drives you to
46:14
pursue knowledge. But no, no issue in your life
46:18
should have you hungry about it. Beyond God above God.
46:22
Your hunger for God should be the highest level of hunger that
46:26
should be and remain in your life.
46:30
Are we together? You must hunger after Him more
46:33
than your hunger to prosper. You must hunger after him more
46:37
than your hunger to advance. So your hunger level, test it
46:42
now. Your prayer life, test it now.
46:45
Your word? Study life and your passion for
46:48
spiritual knowledge that empowers you and translates to
46:51
dominion. Are we together?
46:54
Yeah, your passion for the House of God.
46:57
The moment corporate fellowship is something that your spirit
47:00
disdains, it's an attack. Check it immediately.
47:03
Finally, your service. I do not know how people live
47:09
their lives not serving the purposes of God, not necessarily
47:15
the House of God, but that your life must be about the King's
47:19
business. Now listen, tonight is a
47:23
checklist. You know that you are successful
47:27
spiritually if all of these things are working in your life.
47:31
And I'm asking you now, be brutally honest with yourself.
47:34
Remember my preamble before we started.
47:37
You cannot be transformed, you cannot grow if you are not
47:40
brutally honest. Can you honestly tell yourself
47:44
on a scale of 1 to 10 that you have a hunger level for God
47:47
beyond 7, less than 7, you are still playing.
47:51
There is room to step up. In fact, you get to a certain
47:54
realm in the Spirit where if it is not at least eight or nine,
47:59
there are certain things God cannot commit to you #2 your
48:04
prayer life. Are we together?
48:07
Some of us can't wait for seven hours in the office of someone,
48:11
maybe a politician. And you are not tired.
48:13
The man who come out in your presence.
48:15
Ah, you are still here. Sorry.
48:16
No problem, chief. How about you again?
48:18
I'm I'm OK, you've not eaten from morning to night and you
48:23
are waiting there and you cannot spend 30 minutes in the presence
48:27
of one who can touch the heart of anyone and redirect your
48:30
life. You see how penny wise and pound
48:34
foolish we are in the Kingdom sometimes.
48:37
I'm not saying there's to give honor to whom honor is due, but
48:39
it it will be stupid of me to spend 1012 hours before men,
48:44
mortal men who were once babies in the hand of a woman, waiting
48:48
for favor, waiting to sign something.
48:51
Whereas in their hands you can descend already that the answer
48:55
is no, they are just playing around and wasting your time.
48:58
Whereas I can go before the king, I cast my crown before.
49:05
The highest royalty, I am undone before your glorious Majesty.
49:16
You're the king of kings and. Lord of the Lords.
49:21
You are the King of Kings. You are the Lord of the Lords.
49:36
Listen, most of you do not know what God can do, that's why you
49:41
respect men more than Him. I all know men know, but I don't
49:45
worship men. Everybody was once a baby in the
49:49
hand of a woman. Listen, Koinonia believers, let
49:52
me advise you, this is the world of men.
49:55
But don't forget that there is One who is the holder of every
49:58
man's life. Any arrogant man can say
50:01
tomorrow if he wakes up, if he what?
50:07
I lay me down and I slept. I only wait for the Lord sustain
50:11
me. There are many people in history
50:13
who did not believe they would die.
50:16
They themselves did not believe they would die.
50:18
There are tombs to their testaments that all men are like
50:22
people. But there is him that does not
50:24
die. Come on, I rather foolishly
50:29
waste my life and waste my time in His presence.
50:32
It is more profitable to waste my time in his presence than to
50:37
galivant around the world of men that don't have the power.
50:40
And then the person tells you where I was also expecting favor
50:43
from somebody, and I was. Hoping if they give me then I
50:46
will give you. No, let me go to the one who
50:48
gives all things. I know you don't believe me.
51:31
If anointing was stored in a library or in a bank, some of us
51:37
would not even have up to 10,000 worth of anointing now because
51:40
of the wickedness in the hearts of men.
51:42
But thank God, there is he that anoints men that we can cry
51:48
before him and he can see the sincerity of our heart.
51:51
And whether you believe the man or not, God decides and say, I
51:55
have found David my servant, and with my holy oil I have anointed
52:00
him. I have blessed and he cannot be
52:05
cursed, cannot be cursed, cannot be cursed.
52:11
Listen, listen, Koinonia, hear me.
52:14
I'm showing you the road map to ever increasing glory.
52:20
A man whose hunger remains, a man whose prayer life remains, a
52:26
man whose passion for the world remains, a man whose desire for
52:31
corporate fellowship remains. A man whose service to Jesus
52:36
remains is the man who you cannot do anything about till
52:40
Jesus comes. I can tell you that there are
52:43
some men that there's nothing you can do about.
52:46
The only way to attack them is to work in partnership with
52:50
Satan to attack their hunger. Attack their prayer life.
52:54
Attack their passion through pride and arrival mentality.
52:58
We dealt with that. Attack their passion for the
53:01
House of God through offense and then attack their passion for
53:05
service through exhaustion. You have finished their
53:08
spiritual life. But for as long as a man's
53:11
hunger remains, I'm showing you how to very Satan in your life.
53:14
Don't let men look at you and make it look like anybody can
53:17
make you fall. Anybody can make you destroyed.
53:20
You don't just fall like that. There are things that must go
53:23
wrong. When your hunger falls, when
53:25
your prayer life falls, when your word life falls, when your
53:29
passion for the house falls, when your passion for service
53:32
falls, then your spiritual life will fall.
53:36
Provided this is solid. I tell you, you are.
53:39
You are as solid as Mount Zion. Mountains will come and go.
53:43
All things will come and go. You will stand like the cedar in
53:47
Lebanon. Are we together?
53:52
We live in a world where spiritual people are so bullied
53:55
with this issue of falling, people just make it look like
53:58
you can get up in the morning and just fall.
54:00
It's a lie. Rising is based on principles.
54:04
Falling is based on principles. There are some things that must
54:07
be neglected consistently beyond the boundary of God's mercy for
54:12
you to fall. Your hunger, your prayer life,
54:16
your watch, study life, your passion for knowledge, your
54:19
passion for the House of God, your passion to serve God.
54:23
Show me a man who works in keeping with this.
54:25
You have found the key for spiritual stability in an ever
54:29
increasing glory. I tell you, storms will rise and
54:32
come down. You will still be standing.
54:36
Standing. Anybody looking forward to your
54:39
downfall will waste their time and their destiny for nothing.
54:43
Are we together now? Take your mind away from falling
54:47
on destruction. Focus on your hunger.
54:51
If something is wrong with your hunger, go for a retreat.
54:54
If something is wrong with your prayer life even now, go for a
54:57
retreat. If something is wrong with your
54:59
what Study life and your overall appetite for spiritual
55:03
knowledge. Go for a retreat.
55:05
If something is wrong through offense, you don't want to come
55:08
to the House of God again. It's an attack.
55:11
I don't care the reason and the legitimacy of it.
55:14
If anything affects your service, you are in trouble.
55:17
But if all these things are in place, let people prophecy, let
55:20
people say whatever, they will come and be old and go.
55:23
You will still be standing. This is how God designed his
55:27
system. Is someone learning now?
55:31
You need to have strength and courage as you work with God.
55:35
God is not haphazard. There is stability to your work
55:38
with God. Take away the fear factor in
55:41
your work with God. Do you know how many people
55:44
prophesied things about some of us when we started?
55:48
You know how many prophetic words flew around?
55:51
They will not stand. Nonsense.
55:53
We're talking of the God of heaven.
56:03
Provided you keep the principles, there is nothing
56:06
Satan can do. I pray for you.
56:09
These areas are listed if there is any one of them that is
56:13
declining in your life, from the depth of my heart, I pray for
56:17
you now because the area declining is the area Satan is
56:20
attacking. May fresh fire be restored to
56:23
your life. Sit down the road map #2 I hope
56:32
we're able to make progress. Let's see where we can stop Who
56:35
is learning #2 What is the secret to transformation #1 the
56:43
secret to transformation. I'm showing you the road map so
56:46
that you will know it and you can guide others.
56:49
I've shown you how to be spiritual is not vague.
56:53
There is an exact pattern to spirituality.
57:00
What is the key to transformation?
57:02
Listen carefully. The ultimate key to
57:05
transformation is your awareness, your recognition of
57:10
your current condition mentally, the knowledge that a lot happens
57:15
in your life as reflected by your mindset or otherwise, that
57:21
if your destiny will happen, you have a mental contribution to
57:25
your success or a mental contribution to your failure.
57:29
I have taught you here that your mindset and your belief system
57:33
is your contribution to your success or your contribution to
57:37
your failure. If you fail in life is not
57:40
entirely the devil. If you succeed in life, it is
57:43
all God in truth. But in terms of his dynamics,
57:46
you participated in many ways, among them through your trans
57:50
information. How do we contend for
57:52
transformation #1 an awareness and a recognition of our current
57:58
level in terms of our belief system?
58:02
You must get to a point where you are honestly aware that the
58:06
reason why my life is like this, the reason why my influence is
58:11
diminished or not even there to start with, the reason why I
58:14
don't seem to have been able to make constructive progress is
58:17
because something about my thinking is faulty.
58:21
The Bible says, let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ
58:25
Jesus. So number one, you recognize #2
58:29
you go for strategic knowledge, strategic knowledge.
58:34
And let me tell you this, strategic knowledge is most
58:37
enhanced through structured mentorship.
58:41
Strategic knowledge that leads to your transformation is most
58:45
enhanced through mentorship. Mentorship allows you to hear
58:52
the knowledge, the body of knowledge that is relevant.
58:56
The the beauty of mentorship is that sense has been addicted
59:00
from nonsense and you can trust what you are hearing.
59:03
Are we together now? There are certain products that
59:08
if you get from the farm directly, it's profitable, but
59:11
you can't consume them immediately.
59:13
It's not been refined, it's not been worked on.
59:15
You can go to the mall and you find the same product, but maybe
59:19
it's been deshelled, you know, it's been prepared and all of
59:22
that. You pick it and immediately you
59:23
can consume it. That's what mentorship does.
59:26
Destiny. Brings a harvest, cleans it,
59:28
purifies everything, puts the sea together, creates a buffet,
59:33
then calls you to come. You learn without the pain
59:36
factor. Listen.
59:38
Carefully so I'm trusting. God for transformation, knowing
59:42
that my mind has a lot to play with my as far as my destiny is
59:46
concerned or my overall success. I recognize honestly, without
59:52
being ashamed, that where I am today is a product of my
59:56
mentality. My next assignment is to go for
59:59
structured knowledge. Not any and every kind of
1:00:03
knowledge. Knowledge that drives away
1:00:05
darkness in the area of concern. And that is where mentorship
1:00:09
comes. Mentorship helps you.
1:00:11
It distills knowledge. It serves you with knowledge
1:00:14
that has been tested in the life of the individual and gleaning
1:00:19
from those who have commanded results, consistent results.
1:00:24
When you get knowledge what is? The third thing to do?
1:00:27
You meditate, you meditate, you meditate.
1:00:31
There cannot be transformation without meditation.
1:00:35
The hearing and hearing again, the hearing and hearing again.
1:00:39
I have taught you in this House that there are two levels of
1:00:42
hearing. There is hearing that brings
1:00:44
awareness and there is hearing that brings conviction.
1:00:47
You need both. You can have the hearing that
1:00:50
brings awareness and not grow, but the hearing that brings
1:00:55
conviction. That thought is now embedded in
1:00:58
your subconscious. It's gotten to a realm where it
1:01:01
must act out its physical reality.
1:01:04
It is true. And the key is repetition,
1:01:08
faith. Comes by hearing there are
1:01:10
materials as I've listened to without exaggeration for
1:01:13
thousands of times, hundreds of hours put together one material.
1:01:18
The purpose was not knowledge. The purpose was to transport it
1:01:23
into my spirit. And when it resides within,
1:01:26
there no wonder the psalmist say I have hidden your word in my
1:01:29
heart. You literally can carry your
1:01:31
heart as a soil and bury something within.
1:01:35
Program yourself to victory. Are we together now?
1:01:39
Transformation. Look at me.
1:01:41
Many of you here are still victims of culture.
1:01:44
You are still victims of the pain of yesterday.
1:01:47
You are still victim of the mindset of yesteryears.
1:01:50
Even though you are in Christ, God cannot trust you with
1:01:53
greatness and victory. The reason being that your mind
1:01:56
is not yet transformed. You cannot become a leader
1:01:59
thinking like yesterday. You will punish the people God
1:02:02
brings to you. Are we together?
1:02:03
I have taught you that there are many of you.
1:02:05
Because of the mentality you have, you are easily angry.
1:02:08
It's not that you are angry person.
1:02:10
There is a mindset, a software that is cancerous eating up your
1:02:14
mind. If you are not healed from it,
1:02:16
God cannot bring people to you. You will hurt and wound the
1:02:20
people. I have told you it is only those
1:02:22
who are healed that can heal others.
1:02:25
Wounded people wound other people.
1:02:30
When you become a father with a poisonous.
1:02:32
Mindset A mother with a poisonous mindset.
1:02:35
A principle A principle. A director with a poisonous
1:02:39
mindset. A pastor with a poisonous
1:02:42
mindset. It is a reason why all leaders
1:02:44
as a matter of urgency must contend for transformation that
1:02:50
exalts you beyond the negative grip of culture, beyond the
1:02:53
negative grip of your past, the negative grip of failure, the
1:02:57
negative grip of your small minded association.
1:03:01
You rise to a point where you think like the eagles, where you
1:03:04
think like lions, where you think like a winner, you think
1:03:08
like a champion. Let this mind be in you, which
1:03:11
was also in Christ Jesus, who is understanding this.
1:03:15
So when you see that you're not transformed, by the way, how do
1:03:19
you know you are not transformed?
1:03:20
The quality of your decisions, the kind of results and
1:03:24
testimonies that recycle around your life are a report card as
1:03:28
to your mindset, a report card as to your belief system.
1:03:36
Let me tell you this every level.
1:03:38
Of possibility in the spirit and in life requires a certain kind
1:03:43
of mindset or I want to be. A.
1:03:46
Millionaire, there is a mindset. If you don't have, you cannot
1:03:49
prosper God's way. I want to be a man of God over
1:03:52
thousands of people leading them.
1:03:54
There is a mindset, not just a heart desire, a mindset.
1:03:58
I want to be Esther. Esther is a mindset, not just a
1:04:02
woman. Are we together now?
1:04:04
Ruth de Bora is a mindset. Paul is a mindset.
1:04:07
Gideon is a mindset. Abraham is a mindset.
1:04:11
You must have the mindset. I taught you here that the
1:04:15
mindset to rise up and walk is what produces the miracle of
1:04:19
rising up to walk. You will never have the miracle
1:04:22
of rising up to walk till you first have the mindset of rising
1:04:26
up to walk. What do I see in my mind?
1:04:31
A glorious. Koinonia, What do I see in my
1:04:34
mind? An ever growing, ever increasing
1:04:37
ministry with vibrant people serving the purposes of God.
1:04:40
What do I see in my mind? That the arsenals of darkness,
1:04:44
the gates of hell, the conspiracies of men and demonic
1:04:47
assaults cannot stand. What do I see?
1:04:50
Victory. What do I see greatness?
1:04:52
What do I see success? What do I see?
1:04:54
Our children rising to become greater than us.
1:04:57
This is what I see. He said what he has done now I
1:05:00
see the rod of an almond tree is that thou has seen correctly,
1:05:04
for I will hasten my word that you have seen to perform it.
1:05:10
There are. Things I will never see, I
1:05:12
refuse. To see failure, it's a choice.
1:05:15
I refuse to. See.
1:05:16
Weakness. I refuse to see defeat.
1:05:19
Are we together now? Yes.
1:05:21
Don't bring yesterday's photo to me.
1:05:22
I don't want to see it. I look forward only we together
1:05:26
now yesterday. Had its chance.
1:05:28
When it was my today and tomorrow, now that is my
1:05:31
yesterday is gone for good. God did not give me eyes at.
1:05:35
The back I will not. Create one, I look forward and I
1:05:39
go forward. Is someone learning now Mindset.
1:05:46
If someone looks at me now, say possibly you are stupid.
1:05:48
I will even pray about it because I have transited.
1:05:52
Myself. Do stupid people serve God like
1:05:54
this? No.
1:05:56
Are we together now? Yes, so.
1:06:00
You have a. Mindset.
1:06:01
There are battles you don't. Need to fight Transformation
1:06:03
takes you out of the ring so that you are not there waiting
1:06:06
for needless battles. It's children that fight those
1:06:08
kinds of battles. Listen, Koinonia.
1:06:12
If you learn this. You will be at peace.
1:06:14
There are many sicknesses that are mindset dependent.
1:06:17
The reason why the sickness can plague you is because there is a
1:06:20
thinking that partners with that disease.
1:06:24
Are we together? #3 What is the secret?
1:06:37
To health and. Physical well-being.
1:06:39
I'm not a doctor. Come next week Friday and
1:06:44
Saturday and you hear a structured explanation as to how
1:06:49
to be healthy. But I can tell you a few things
1:06:52
#1 gluttony kills. Hello.
1:06:59
Scrutiny kills number. 2 If you don't eat well, you will die.
1:07:05
I can't tell you that one. If you don't eat well, you will
1:07:09
do what? And I have scriptures.
1:07:14
Genesis 42 one and two. Jacob met his sons and said, Why
1:07:18
do we sit and look at one another here?
1:07:20
I hear that there is corn in Egypt.
1:07:23
Verse 2 get you theater. And buy for.
1:07:27
Us that we may live and not die so when people don't eat and
1:07:33
when they don't eat well they die everything taking bread from
1:07:37
your table. I curse it this night in the
1:07:40
name of Jesus while. I'm telling you that gluttony
1:07:45
is. Bad, if you do not have
1:07:47
sufficient food, you are malnourished.
1:07:50
You will die, I can tell you that.
1:07:52
Are we together #3 Inactivity? Medical science would tell us
1:07:58
Inactivity for an indefinite period beddens your organs till
1:08:04
you die. Medicine, medical people, you
1:08:08
should buy me a. Gift after buy me a gift.
1:08:13
After Koinonia because. I'm doing part of your next week
1:08:15
work now. Inactivity.
1:08:18
That means. Laziness.
1:08:20
Is death calling your name? Laziness Is.
1:08:24
Not a sign that. You're a big man.
1:08:26
Now let me tell you how it happens in Africa.
1:08:28
As God starts prospering us, we start dying because we stop
1:08:31
doing many things, including thinking in Africa.
1:08:35
If you're a big man, it's a. Taboo to drive yourself.
1:08:38
It's a taboo to trek out. It's a taboo to buy anything.
1:08:42
Sometimes it's even a taboo to eat yourself and we think these
1:08:46
things are a sign that you have suffered.
1:08:48
This is your time to enjoy and before you know his sicknesses
1:08:51
that have no business finding you, they find a lazy inactive
1:08:55
person by a negative culture driven software.
1:09:00
Wrong definition of prosperity. There are people who were
1:09:03
healthier when they were poor. There are real problems started
1:09:07
when God bless them. Are we together?
1:09:10
And and. This is something that all of us
1:09:12
must repent from. Your house, AC.
1:09:15
Your car AC. Everything AC you never take.
1:09:19
Fresh air for the rest of your life till you die.
1:09:22
You call it enjoyment sitting before a big.
1:09:26
Screen morning till. Night.
1:09:27
Hurting your eyes, hurting the various parts of your body.
1:09:31
One leg up, one leg down. From morning to night.
1:09:33
You have all kinds of servants. John.
1:09:36
Go and get me water. Ruth, get me this.
1:09:38
And I'm not being sarcastic. I am telling you it's a it's an
1:09:42
African cancer sometimes because we have suffered too much.
1:09:46
You want to draw me to destiny that I've arrived.
1:09:48
It's unnecessary. Are we together now?
1:09:51
You must make up your mind that this body you are hosting my
1:09:55
spirit for a long time, who is in agreement with me you are
1:10:01
hosting. My body for a long.
1:10:03
Time. If I wake up, every part of my
1:10:06
body must wake up. I won't wake up and my hand now
1:10:09
refuses to rise up. Hand wake up.
1:10:14
There's work to be done. I won't wake up.
1:10:17
And then my eyes will not wake up, no.
1:10:21
Speak to your body, I'm telling you.
1:10:24
As a principle, I learned that from Kenneth Copeland speaks to
1:10:28
his organs and say in the name of Jesus, you are functioning
1:10:30
healthy. Nobody will call me one day and
1:10:33
say one part of my heart has collapsed.
1:10:35
Let the devil go to hell. In the name of Jesus Christ,
1:10:38
keep at his bones. Keep at his bones.
1:10:41
Now please don't feel bad if you're sick.
1:10:43
We're here to pray for you. I know that there are people,
1:10:45
but I'm challenging you. This is how to be successful
1:10:49
health wise. And then?
1:10:53
There are many things you need. To painfully take out of your
1:10:55
life. I don't want to kill anybody's
1:10:58
business, but let me tell you the truth.
1:11:01
I've taught you that there is. Death in the pot?
1:11:04
Some of you have been eating death many times in a day.
1:11:08
Make sure you verify. Am I eating life or death?
1:11:13
You know how we do it in Africa? 2 wraps.
1:11:17
Of swallow. With soup all around.
1:11:20
Are we together? And literally 1/4 or half of
1:11:24
chicken? Only you and then 2 bottles of
1:11:26
minerals. No water, no water.
1:11:30
You drank water when you. Were poor, now you're a rich
1:11:33
man. No water.
1:11:37
Are we together and then you eat everything and while you are?
1:11:44
Doing it you are listening to my message.
1:11:48
Is right, Apostle is. Preaching.
1:11:51
Powerfully. Plus 1 -, 1 is what?
1:11:59
Help me plus 1 - 1 That's the reason why fasting is good.
1:12:11
Aside from the spiritual benefit.
1:12:12
Fasting helps you. There are times you just shut
1:12:15
down and give your. Body peace for a while.
1:12:18
Let it work on the things you are already damaging those
1:12:20
things. Let clean out those things.
1:12:22
I'm telling you if you're under medical advice don't fast as the
1:12:26
doctors recommend. But I'm telling you once you are
1:12:28
life unhealthy, if you eat every day and every time you will
1:12:31
still die. If you don't eat you will still
1:12:33
you. See how you everything must be
1:12:35
moderation? As for me, I plan to live long.
1:12:41
And among my many strategies is to eat well.
1:12:45
As God begins to help you, please leave yesterday and start
1:12:48
eating well. There are some of you to buy
1:12:51
clean water. You say no, I won't spend this
1:12:53
kind of money. God forbid you see that
1:12:57
something about yesterday still wants to drag you.
1:13:00
You will not mind fetching water directly from the well with cope
1:13:03
Andreas disease. No, they kill.
1:13:05
You know those kind of things. I hope you're not just laughing
1:13:13
when people are dying in your presence every.
1:13:15
Day say I will be healthy. Say it again, I'll be healthy.
1:13:22
Wives, ladies, learn. How to cook healthy?
1:13:25
Food. Learn how.
1:13:28
To cook healthy food, don't. Kill your family because they
1:13:32
married you into the house. Learn how.
1:13:34
I'm giving you an honest advice, don't be offended.
1:13:36
I'm sorry this is Koinonia, but learn how to cook healthy food.
1:13:41
Are we together? Learn how to cook, learn how to
1:13:44
cook healthy food. And I'm praying for you in the
1:13:46
name of Jesus Christ. If there is anybody here that
1:13:50
the devil has already put a death sentence, that before the
1:13:53
end of the year, maybe because of carelessness, some of you
1:13:57
were smoking before, some of you were drinking before you damage
1:14:00
your liver, damage your organs. I pray for you by the power that
1:14:04
raised Christ from the dead. May the mercy of God bring a
1:14:07
resurrection to your organs. May the mercy.
1:14:11
Of God bring a resurrection. To your organs, may the mercy of
1:14:16
God bring a resurrection. To your organs, may the mercy of
1:14:20
God bring a resurrection. To your organs, may the mercy of
1:14:23
God bring a resurrection. To your organs.
1:14:24
In the name of Jesus #4 your purpose and assignment.
1:14:30
I wouldn't speak quick so much. There, there are only three.
1:14:34
Keys I will give you here. Discovery, Refining, and
1:14:40
deploying. That is the key to working in
1:14:42
purpose. I refer you to the book
1:14:45
Discovering Your Potentials by Doctor Miles Monroe.
1:14:49
Then I refer you to my teachings, also on purpose.
1:14:52
I've done a number of teachings on purpose, but here's what I
1:14:55
will tell you. You are as fulfilled to the
1:14:58
degree to which you discover, refine and serve with
1:15:04
excellence. Make sure you pray.
1:15:06
That you'll be taken as part of the School of Ministry students.
1:15:09
By the way, soon we'll give the announcement for the next
1:15:11
session and make sure that you stop praying right now.
1:15:15
Prayer works, Hallelujah, so that you are absorbed and.
1:15:20
Then you have an opportunity. To learn, learn very
1:15:23
strategically the matters of purpose and destiny.
1:15:26
But the key here, a rule of thumb is that you have to
1:15:29
discover it's been there. You don't invent your purpose.
1:15:32
You discover it, you ascend with it.
1:15:35
And there are many ways to discover it #1 the use of your
1:15:38
potentials. When you discover your
1:15:40
potentials, potentials are pointers to your purpose.
1:15:44
I would always say this way, if you see an individual holding a
1:15:48
stethoscope, what do you call that individual?
1:15:50
A doctor when you see an individual.
1:15:52
Holding a knife. And I mean a hammer and a nail.
1:15:56
That person is called a thank. You you see that now.
1:16:00
So you can use your potentials as pointers to your purpose #2
1:16:04
prophetic revelations and confirmations.
1:16:07
God comes to you in dreams, visions, prophetic confirmations
1:16:10
#3A byproduct of service. Sometimes service in the House
1:16:15
of God is how you really discover what He's put within
1:16:18
your heart. Right, so this is.
1:16:21
Just a summary. When you discover your
1:16:24
potentials, even if you don't know where you are taking it to,
1:16:27
the next thing is to content to refine it, to refine it.
1:16:32
Or God has given me the ability to speak, you refine it.
1:16:35
God has given me the ability to sing, you refine it.
1:16:38
God has given me the ability to have very high intellectual
1:16:42
acumen. Refine it.
1:16:43
And then when you refine it, begin to serve.
1:16:46
Look up, please. The easiest way to begin to
1:16:49
serve your purpose is the House of God as a Walker.
1:16:53
Are we together now? Phillip started as a welfare
1:16:56
person, but he eventually became an evangelist.
1:16:59
The Bible acknowledges him as an evangelist, but he started with
1:17:03
welfare. From there he discovered his
1:17:06
place. You can start as an OSHA and
1:17:09
eventually end as a mighty apostle.
1:17:12
Because as an OSHA, your gift will now be seen.
1:17:15
And one day they will say, lead a small prayer here, and they
1:17:17
begin to descend the hand of God upon your life.
1:17:20
Gradually you begin to scale, proving through faithfulness
1:17:24
that God can take you higher and higher, until one day he will
1:17:27
now commit to you your own work. That's how it works.
1:17:31
Let's go to #4 very quickly. Who is learning tonight?
1:17:36
The road map? I won't talk.
1:17:39
Much about finances number. 4 or #5 now am I right #5 is your
1:17:44
finances. I wish I had time to drum it.
1:17:47
I hope I will take one of I promise you is a promise I'm
1:17:50
giving you. Between now and when Kolonia is
1:17:52
done, we'll talk about this money thing one more time.
1:17:55
Maybe 1 of this week will come and just touch.
1:17:57
It again. Are we together?
1:17:59
Because this finance thing is not something you hear once and
1:18:02
understand. It's a very stubborn subject.
1:18:04
You need to hear and hear again and file this area, file that
1:18:08
area, file that area. Finances.
1:18:10
The teaching of finances comes with a lot of pride because most
1:18:14
times people hear it and say, you mean it's this simple until
1:18:16
they tried. Then they find out that they
1:18:18
were trying to hold water with their hands.
1:18:20
Everything just went out. There is a skill to it.
1:18:23
To make it work, are we together?
1:18:25
But generally. I will tell you this, you
1:18:29
prosper to the degree. To which you are.
1:18:31
Valuable. You prosper to the degree to
1:18:33
which you are favored. You can rest on that.
1:18:37
You prosper to the degree to which you are valuable, and you
1:18:40
prosper to the degree to. Which you are.
1:18:42
Favored. The two principal keys that
1:18:46
control wealth and abundance is value and favored through
1:18:50
relationships. Take this as a rule of thumb,
1:18:53
value turning. Your gifts.
1:18:56
Your ability to products and services, packaging it with
1:19:00
excellence and serving it to a targeted consumer base.
1:19:05
You call that business, we call that value.
1:19:08
Are you saying that now the degree?
1:19:10
To which you are valuable serving.
1:19:11
Solutions that are needed and useful.
1:19:15
The reason why certain professions look more profitable
1:19:18
than others is because they solve greater weightier problems
1:19:22
than others. Are we together?
1:19:24
If a doctor and a Carpenter, an architect is here, most likely
1:19:28
the doctor will have more clients because humans are prone
1:19:31
to being sick faster. They need health solutions
1:19:34
better than even a housing solution.
1:19:38
Are we together now? So when it has to do with
1:19:40
prospering, there is a spiritual side to it.
1:19:43
And listen to all of my messages that are preached around
1:19:46
finances. But I must tell you this.
1:19:48
If you are not valuable. And you do not refine your value
1:19:53
and serve it with excellence. I hate to be a bearer of bad
1:19:57
news. You will be poor or you will not
1:19:59
be sustainably wealthy. There's a lot of superstition.
1:20:04
Around wealth, especially as proposed by the church and is
1:20:07
the reason why a lot of non Christians are laughing and
1:20:10
mocking and spiting the church. Because it looks like our entire
1:20:14
theology about wealth is centered on giving and giving
1:20:17
alone. While giving place a very major
1:20:20
spiritual and even psychological role to wealth, it is not
1:20:24
limited to giving alone principally value there are
1:20:28
spiritual laws that. Connect.
1:20:30
You, but I've taught you here, value the degree to which you
1:20:34
are able to serve products and services that are needed and
1:20:39
useful. Are.
1:20:39
We together This mic was bought, this pulpit was bought or
1:20:43
fabricated. This Bible was bought, This
1:20:46
phone was bought. Are we together?
1:20:49
The dress that I'm wearing, Somebody put this together.
1:20:52
Whoever was part of this value chain has had a portion of our
1:20:56
finances. It doesn't matter whether the
1:20:58
person was a Christian or not. Are we together now?
1:21:01
That's how it works. Immediately after service, you
1:21:04
are going to a restaurant or you are going to cook at home.
1:21:07
The one you bought food from, you paid the one you are going
1:21:10
to, whose restaurant you are going to.
1:21:12
Are we together now? That person will continue
1:21:14
receiving your money provided they are providing value.
1:21:17
And then the second angle to it is favored through
1:21:19
relationships. Question, when a millionaire
1:21:22
gives birth to his son, what business solution did the boy
1:21:26
solve to prosper? It's called inheritance.
1:21:29
It's not called profit, it's called inheritance.
1:21:31
Are we together now? Eventually his inheritance can
1:21:34
be transferred to profit, but at the time it is called
1:21:38
inheritance. So relationships are very
1:21:42
powerful. Anybody you sell value to can
1:21:45
reward you, but the person that likes you too can bless you is
1:21:49
not called reward but he's still money reaching you and that's
1:21:52
the most important thing. Now when God really wants to
1:21:56
power your life, he grants you access to do both, that you are
1:22:00
both valuable and he connects you to strategic profitable pro
1:22:04
destiny relationships. It doesn't keep you lazy but it
1:22:08
becomes an acceleration for you. There are many people who
1:22:11
relationships can give them capital and wisdom can help them
1:22:15
do business with the money and they begin to scale.
1:22:18
If you ask them how were you blessed, they will tell you both
1:22:20
relationships and value don't depend on relationships alone.
1:22:25
It is the way of a lazy man, even if relationships give you
1:22:28
resources. It.
1:22:29
Is wisdom and learning how to transact that grows your
1:22:33
resources? What if the only thing you know
1:22:36
is how to? Transact.
1:22:37
Value your your growth rate will be very slow.
1:22:41
Are we together now? Because transaction, from an
1:22:44
economic standpoint, is tampered by many nuances, many biases.
1:22:52
Relationships are a great leverage in.
1:22:54
Life. Don't ignore them.
1:22:57
I am a product of. The financial blessings that
1:23:00
have come from relationships, largely relationships are
1:23:04
powerful. Are we together now?
1:23:06
You can build a house, you can own an estate, you can have a
1:23:10
property, whatever it is. But by the time you transact,
1:23:13
there are people who have written books, it has blessed
1:23:16
them. There are people who have sold
1:23:17
their materials, their intellectual property, it has
1:23:20
blessed them. Some of you here make clothes.
1:23:23
My assignment is to release grace on what you are doing.
1:23:26
If there is nothing you are doing, releasing financial grace
1:23:30
on it is profitless. Are we together?
1:23:32
Lazy people shout Amen with empty hands.
1:23:34
Visionary people carry their value up and receive blessings
1:23:38
on it. When?
1:23:41
People are lazy, they just shout Amen.
1:23:43
For what? What are you going to do now?
1:23:45
Say nothing? All I know is that somebody will
1:23:47
not sleep. We need to be careful.
1:23:53
Are we together? Now there are others who truly
1:23:55
believe that they wouldn't do anything in this life just
1:23:58
because they love Jesus. Somebody must give them his
1:24:01
house, his car, his clothes, pay.
1:24:05
Their children. School fees while they just sit
1:24:07
down, say God is faithful is the way of fools.
1:24:10
I'm sorry to say, but is the way of fools, even as a man.
1:24:14
Of God, I don't expect that. Kind of result that you are.
1:24:19
Immune by priesthood. But I still believe that my
1:24:23
hands are blessed, my mind is blessed, that favor will come,
1:24:27
but I will not abuse the grace of God.
1:24:29
Is someone learning now in the name of Jesus, the spirit of
1:24:33
laziness around your life? I cost it right now.
1:24:37
Yeah, I mean. If you are troubleshooting.
1:24:40
Your financial problems, The first area to go to is whether
1:24:44
or not whether or not you are valuable.
1:24:48
Are you valuable then? To who?
1:24:51
If you are only valuable to yourself, you are flattering
1:24:54
yourself because you cannot pay yourself.
1:24:56
You will have to serve that value to another outside of
1:24:59
yourself. And if the person does not need
1:25:02
the value you carry, then unfortunately there will not be
1:25:05
a reward. Some of you are valuable enough
1:25:07
to be commended, not to be rewarded.
1:25:11
We together we can. Clap for you for the.
1:25:13
Value you carry, but it's not exceptional enough.
1:25:16
It's not refined enough, it's not packaged enough.
1:25:20
Value must be translated to productivity.
1:25:24
Productivity is when value is translated to goods and services
1:25:28
that are now refined, served with excellence to a targeted
1:25:33
consumer base. Then you are rewarded, not just
1:25:36
commended. And then favor true
1:25:38
relationships. I have taught you, sincerely so,
1:25:42
that the easiest way to prosper is through relationships.
1:25:46
Who hates you does not matter. I will say this.
1:25:49
To you endlessly, but who likes you matters.
1:25:52
May Someone Like You before December enough to contribute.
1:25:56
To. Your financial laughter, Are we
1:26:00
together? Now I.
1:26:02
Expect blessings from favor every day, including finances.
1:26:07
I'm saying it without shame. I'm saying it without any sense
1:26:10
of apology. Are we together?
1:26:13
But then after you check the issue of value, check the issue
1:26:18
of relationships. Now let me tell you this, I'm
1:26:20
not teaching you to be parasitic in your relationship or to say
1:26:24
you, you are poor. You can't be my friend.
1:26:26
I also have thought that prosperity comes from
1:26:28
relationship. I found out that I have too many
1:26:31
poor people around me. That's don't do that because the
1:26:34
person you are laughing at today, God can exalt the person,
1:26:37
but I will tell you one truth. I will tell you one truth.
1:26:41
I will tell you one truth. When you are transformed, your
1:26:45
relationships will also rise to match your transformation.
1:26:49
If everybody around you is poor, I'm telling you sincerely, I'm
1:26:54
not insulting them, but it's a report card to how your thinking
1:26:57
is. You can.
1:27:00
Steal the contact of a rich. Man from somebody's phone.
1:27:04
Call the person and see whether you pick your number.
1:27:06
The fact that he's not picking your number means he does not
1:27:09
recognize you. You have not gotten to that
1:27:11
realm. So rather than embarrassing
1:27:13
yourself, content by light to a level where those who you call
1:27:17
great today will also call you great.
1:27:20
Is someone learning now? Yes.
1:27:23
I didn't even know when the contact in my phone changed,
1:27:26
quite honestly. It was not something that was
1:27:28
intentionally done and I can't remember deleting the old ones,
1:27:32
but I can't find them. That somebody you desire would
1:27:40
be the one to collect. Your phone and say let me type
1:27:42
my number to be sure you are there.
1:27:44
You see, everybody blesses according.
1:27:47
To his. Riches in glory.
1:27:49
If somebody is poor, he cannot bless you.
1:27:52
You get what I'm saying? He may pray for you, he may
1:27:55
intercede for you, he may wait upon the Lord for you.
1:27:57
But as far as financial blessing is concerned, you will not get
1:28:01
anything. Let me tell you sincerely, don't
1:28:03
waste your time. It is wealthy people that can
1:28:06
help give you the leverage of of wealth.
1:28:08
It is the truth, it is the truth.
1:28:11
Pray for everybody to be around your life, but in this season
1:28:14
pray for quality people established by the mercy of God
1:28:18
that they will look upon you with kindness and extend
1:28:21
benevolence to you, whilst God helps you to solve your problem
1:28:25
too. These are very uncomfortable
1:28:31
truths, especially. Because you are saying it in
1:28:32
church, but the truth is still the truth.
1:28:35
A poor man can pray for you. What if poor man cannot help you
1:28:39
financially? Are we together if.
1:28:47
Everybody around my life is poor.
1:28:49
I would just believe I'm sent to them and I'll stop praying for
1:28:52
my real helpers to come around. Hallelujah.
1:29:00
Do you believe what you're hearing?
1:29:02
But. Then I will tell you this.
1:29:04
And even. If this is where we stop.
1:29:05
Tonight, that is still fine. There is a grace.
1:29:12
That prospers there is an. Anointing.
1:29:17
That prospers. I've proven it with my life.
1:29:21
It is true if it's something someone.
1:29:24
Told me you can say. You are just talking nonsense,
1:29:26
but the things we have seen, the things we have heard by.
1:29:30
The messes of God. The things.
1:29:31
That our hands have handled. Are we together now?
1:29:35
Honestly. Speaking.
1:29:36
Believers, hear me, there is a grace from heaven that comes on
1:29:40
the head of a man and redefines your financial possibility.
1:29:46
And for someone tonight, whilst you are seated quietly in the
1:29:49
name of Jesus, like the dew of Harmon, in addition to the value
1:29:54
you are providing, in addition to the strategic relationships,
1:29:58
you are at a point in your life now where you need help that man
1:30:02
cannot give. It will take the God of heaven
1:30:04
showing you mercy. Otherwise you will wake up early
1:30:07
in the morning, you will sleep late in the night.
1:30:10
You will read my role, the dose of destiny, even the dose of
1:30:14
value and it will still not work for you.
1:30:16
I pray for you now wherever you are, provided you came here with
1:30:20
hunger. This grace that can help man
1:30:22
that becomes a an accelerator to your your financial journey.
1:30:28
May that grace rest upon your life.
1:30:33
May that grace rest upon your life.
1:30:37
May you become a. Financial wonder in addition to
1:30:41
your value. In addition to relationships,
1:30:44
may that grace rest upon you. Rest on me, Rest on me.
1:31:07
Hallelujah, the goal of. The teaching tonight is to
1:31:12
connect desires with outcomes. It's like a spiritual
1:31:16
troubleshooting. Are we together now?
1:31:18
I'm running for you a list so that you will go back as you are
1:31:23
listening. This is what mentorship is
1:31:25
about. You can now examine what area of
1:31:27
your life that is not working. I wish we had time for me to
1:31:30
touch a bit on relationships, but we have to pray now.
1:31:33
But relationships are very vital.
1:31:36
Some of you are alone, you are lonely, nobody to help you.
1:31:40
You know many people, but you did not connect to them.
1:31:44
Listen, the one who helps you is the one you connect to, not the
1:31:48
one you know. You can know the person, but if.
1:31:51
You are not. Connected help will not flow
1:31:53
from them to you. Are we together now?
1:31:55
I know this, Senator. You may not be lying, but you
1:31:58
will never receive help from them.
1:32:00
I know this man of God. Knowing people does not benefit
1:32:04
you relationally. You must learn how to connect.
1:32:08
Kamala Costiata Connect and the way you.
1:32:13
Connect. Let me tell you this.
1:32:14
Live tonight knowing that relationships are investments.
1:32:18
The same way you do real estate, You do oil and gas, my brothers,
1:32:22
my sisters. Relationships are investment.
1:32:26
It is fraud to want a return over any investment you did not
1:32:30
do. Are we together when you are
1:32:34
catching 4/1? Niners.
1:32:35
Catch those who want a return from investments, relationships
1:32:39
they did not invest to because it's fraud.
1:32:45
It's amazing how many people do not invest in lives, they just
1:32:50
show up. I want a stake.
1:32:52
No, it doesn't work that way. If you were not there when I'm
1:32:55
crying, when you see me smiling, rejoice from afar, Don't come
1:32:59
near me. Are we together now?
1:33:01
You can earn a living believing in people.
1:33:05
You can earn a living believing in people.
1:33:08
That I take the risk to believe in you.
1:33:11
If you fail, I have nothing to lose.
1:33:13
But if you succeed, I will become part of the foot soldiers
1:33:17
that believed in you until you're rising.
1:33:19
There are people today, whether they do business or not, the
1:33:22
truth is that they have done the business of risking their
1:33:25
credibility to believe in those rising.
1:33:28
Unfortunate for them. It worked.
1:33:33
It worked. Are we together?
1:33:36
It worked too some of you. Don't believe in anybody you.
1:33:41
Run away from people while you are checking with the side of
1:33:43
your eye. Once you see a crown on your
1:33:45
head you run and come and say remember I was here.
1:33:48
They said no Sir that is fraud. Show me the sign.
1:33:52
Of blood from my tears. Show me the nails.
1:33:55
The sign of nails. Did you help me carry the cross?
1:33:58
Let me tell you this, make up your mind.
1:34:01
That. You will start believing in
1:34:03
people as you come for Koinonia you may see.
1:34:05
Others. No car, no nothing, but they're
1:34:08
shouting Amen. Every day you see them rising.
1:34:11
Don't laugh at demo that they fire falls on their head.
1:34:14
In one month they will come and testify and say I got a job,
1:34:18
somebody did whatever. And you tell them, Sir, that man
1:34:21
that helped you, do you know he's the one I've been trying to
1:34:23
give a contract to? And you say I don't know you.
1:34:26
I don't know you, Joshua Saleman.
1:34:28
I know. Are we together?
1:34:37
And let me say this. With all due respect, even for
1:34:39
men of God, don't appear in the life of a successful man and
1:34:43
just call him your son. What did you do in his life?
1:34:47
Show up in. The life of people and just
1:34:49
claim. His take?
1:34:50
They are not idiots. They may respect you, but they
1:34:52
are not stupid. They know where the anointing
1:34:54
came from. That's why a lot of people say.
1:34:57
Can you imagine I. Did this and nobody came back to
1:35:00
me. It's a lie.
1:35:01
It's impossible to invest in building people and selflessly
1:35:06
and God lifts them and they forget.
1:35:07
You go around stealing sheep and claiming you invested in people.
1:35:15
As men of God, is it not funny how we are?
1:35:18
We don't call any sick person son.
1:35:20
We don't call any any person who is having a mental problem son.
1:35:24
We only pick cherry pick successful people and say you
1:35:28
are my son, you are my daughter. How don't you believe in the
1:35:32
person who is sick? Until he's he's transformed to
1:35:35
become a sign and a wonder. And he can say, I remember when
1:35:39
I came, I was weak. I was in debt like the man of
1:35:43
David. Look, you have transformed me to
1:35:45
a mighty warrior. We become your foot soldiers.
1:35:47
You will never be hungry, not when we are standing.
1:35:50
Let me tell you the truth, and I submit to you, there are people,
1:35:54
even preachers, who have spent their lives investing in lifting
1:35:58
people today that those people are lifted.
1:36:00
No matter what you say, those people will die defending the
1:36:05
ones who were there for them. Relationships are investments.
1:36:10
Don't waste it. Some of you see our little
1:36:13
children and push them away. You are pushing your house, you
1:36:17
are pushing breakthrough, you are pushing in a position for
1:36:20
your children. Mutual respect is the way of the
1:36:23
wise. Are we together?
1:36:25
I'm showing you a road map today.
1:36:27
I have learned this from people and God has placed wonderful
1:36:31
senior mentors and people in my life.
1:36:33
And one of the advice that gave me, I've seen it in their lives
1:36:36
that they spent their lives investing in quality
1:36:40
relationship. You will never mention any
1:36:43
ministry in Nigeria that they don't have someone there,
1:36:46
someone they raised, someone they blessed, someone they fed
1:36:49
when he did not have food. Now he's say governor, now he's
1:36:53
working somewhere and he can come and say I'm still your boy.
1:36:55
Oh, they call me Excellency but I'm still your boy.
1:36:58
What do you want me to do? Please give this person a job.
1:37:01
Consider it done to you. It's a sign and a wonder to
1:37:04
them. It's a destiny they programmed.
1:37:11
Listen, leave Koinonia tonight. With this consciousness, start
1:37:15
programming your 2025. Don't allow it to come and meet
1:37:19
you alone. Don't allow your heaven to be
1:37:22
brass and your earth iron because you ignore people as
1:37:26
pastors respect people don't. Look down.
1:37:28
On them, just because they are listening to you, God is walking
1:37:31
on them, God is lifting them. If you are a rich man today,
1:37:34
respect those who are coming because you don't know you have
1:37:37
reached your plateau. But the people who are rising,
1:37:40
you don't know how far they will go.
1:37:44
Are we? Together now.
1:37:46
If there is anything. I've learned is.
1:37:48
That relationships are investments.
1:37:51
If people really matter to you, then invest in their lives.
1:37:55
If you don't invest in their lives, don't claim they matter
1:37:58
to you and stay away from their success when God leaves them
1:38:01
because you have no stake there. Hallelujah.
1:38:06
Praise the name of the Lord. There are people today, I don't
1:38:10
expect them to take me so serious because I cannot
1:38:13
remember making any kind of direct strategic investment in
1:38:16
their lives. I didn't make any investment in
1:38:18
that kind of relationship. It will be stupid of me to
1:38:21
expect certain levels of returns.
1:38:23
Whatever I get, I'm grateful because that spells the kind of
1:38:27
investment I made. But there are relationships that
1:38:30
were intentional. They are still intentional.
1:38:33
God brought somebody to learn. All your destiny help us are
1:38:37
around you. They are not yet destiny help
1:38:39
us, but they will be destiny help us tomorrow.
1:38:41
Don't ignore them. That houseboy in your house,
1:38:44
don't ignore them. that Lady washing your plate, don't ignore
1:38:48
them. They may not have money now, but
1:38:50
they are listening to the world every day.
1:38:52
God is lifting them every day. That neighbor, pay attention to
1:38:57
people. Scatter your seeds.
1:38:59
Give a portion to seven-year to 8.
1:39:02
You do not know the disaster that shall come upon the earth.
1:39:05
Are we together now? You see somebody?
1:39:08
Good afternoon, Sir. Oh.
1:39:09
You are an architect. Oh, God bless you.
1:39:11
Something falls on the ground. Let me pick it for you, Sir.
1:39:13
You may think it does not matter.
1:39:15
One day he will look at you among the crowd and say you are
1:39:19
looking for a job. I remember you.
1:39:21
What did you study? You will say, I'm even ashamed
1:39:24
to say it doesn't matter. You were the one who were kind
1:39:26
to me in Koinonia. Come, you have the job now.
1:39:29
I can tell you testimonies of people.
1:39:31
And I say that with all humility.
1:39:33
And I thank all of you here who have given people jobs because
1:39:37
they belong to this family in addition to their competence on
1:39:40
their behalf. I'm saying God bless you.
1:39:42
But there have been people. They didn't have to do any
1:39:44
interview the moment they mention.
1:39:48
Koinonia, I said. That's it.
1:39:49
Provided the value you can you can do all of that.
1:39:53
Come on board, may your. Name be a key, not a padlock.
1:39:59
I say to you as I. Ask you to stand now.
1:40:01
May your name be a key and not a padlock.
1:40:05
That if your name has locked the door, destiny over your
1:40:08
children, lock the door destiny over everyone.
1:40:12
That the when people want to succeed, they have to deny you
1:40:15
to succeed. They can't tell people they know
1:40:18
you because the moment they mention your name, a door that
1:40:21
was open becomes closed. I pray for you, Whatever has
1:40:25
made your name a padlock, may Messy scatter that padlock now.
1:40:33
In the name of Jesus. The road map.
1:40:37
Next. Time you see God lift people and
1:40:39
and you see people succeed in the Kingdom.
1:40:42
Don't say it was a mistake. These are the Kingdom principles
1:40:46
among others. For tonight I did a
1:40:49
troubleshooting for you across these various areas of your
1:40:53
life. Go back and listen to this
1:40:55
message again. Point out where you have not
1:40:57
been practicing it or where you have not found light.
1:41:01
Add more material, sweet and pray in the Spirit and watch
1:41:04
your life rise. As for me, this journey I've
1:41:07
begun with the Holy Ghost, this journey I've begun with a death
1:41:10
in destiny. It is from glory to glory.
1:41:13
From glory to glory. This I'm I'm speaking to myself
1:41:15

1:41:18

1:41:25

1:41:49
vitality. The road map to purpose Destiny.
1:41:55
The road map to financial vitality.
1:41:59
The road map to strategic. Pro destiny relationships Bible.
1:42:06
Says narrow is the way straight. Is the way.
1:42:09
Narrow is the way. Very few people go there and yet
1:42:12
it leads to life. Broad is the way that leads to
1:42:15
destruction. Go ahead and pray, thank God for
1:42:19
what you have. Heard and pray for grace
1:42:21
tonight. I obtain grace.

1:43:14
Don't assume you got everything. Go back with childlike faith.
1:43:18
Listen again prayerfully. Listen again like a student.
1:43:23
Get your iPads, get your notebooks, your laptops, and
1:43:27
listen and write and pray every one of these aspects one by one,
1:43:32
one by one. Tonight I was like a lecturer.
1:43:35
Go back and pray it the area not working in your life.
1:43:39
Then you return with Thanksgiving as you see the
1:43:42
various facets of your life finally answering and you can
1:43:46
tell people that growth and success and excellence is not a
1:43:50
mystery. That there are principles in the
1:43:53
Spirit that can help a man here and now to command an
1:43:58
indomitable and enviable level of life.
1:44:02
You believe that? Give Jesus a big.
1:44:05
Hand clap. Tonight is someone's hour of
1:44:12
salvation. And.
1:44:16
While standing everybody. I want to give one person the
1:44:19
opportunity to at least begin. I have given you a list of 6
1:44:24
areas. Someone has one area to start
1:44:28
with. At least your spiritual life as
1:44:31
it stands. You've never truly made Jesus
1:44:33
Lord of your life or you have not taken your spiritual
1:44:37
vibrancy, your spiritual vitality a serious issue.
1:44:42
But now on hearing me speak, the Lord is convicting your heart
1:44:46
and you are saying, apostle, I want to start afresh wherever
1:44:49
you are, I want you to leave your seat very quickly.
1:44:52
Your bags, your Bibles, everything you came to church
1:44:55
with, give me the honor of leading you to Jesus.
1:44:57
God bless you as you come, wherever you are.
1:45:00
Please keep clapping. Let's not.
1:45:01
Distract them as they come. Someone has to come to Jesus
1:45:05
tonight, and wherever you are, please make your way very
1:45:08
quickly. If you are around the balconies,
1:45:11
I'd like you to make your way to the front quickly.
1:45:13
And if you're saying apostle, I want to rededicate my life to
1:45:16
Jesus. I want to make things right.
1:45:18
Please be on your way. God bless you, my sister.
1:45:20
I see a few people coming. God bless you.
1:45:23
Those coming from outside, come quickly.
1:45:25
Come quickly. God bless you, Koinonia.
1:45:27
Let's keep appreciating them as they come.
1:45:33
God bless you. I want more.
1:45:36
Of you. I want more of you, Jesus.
1:45:46
The. More I know you, the more I want
1:45:51
to. Know.
1:45:52
You Jesus, more of. You.
1:45:57
Is someone still coming? I.
1:46:01
Want more of you? If you're joining them, come
1:46:05
quickly. I want to lead them to.
1:46:06
Pray now. I want more of you, Jesus.
1:46:13
The more I know you, the more I want.
1:46:18
To know you. Jesus, more of you.
1:46:26
Thank you so much brothers and sisters, let me speak.
1:46:28
To someone who is following by line online by way of Internet.
1:46:33
And you're saying, Apostle, you may not see me, but I'm part of
1:46:37
those who have made this decision I want to make Jesus
1:46:39
Lord of my life, I want to salute you right where you are,
1:46:42
in your home, across the globe, anywhere at all as I lead these
1:46:47
ones in. Prayer, I want you to.
1:46:48
Participate. Make sure you pray that prayer
1:46:51
too, and the Lord Jesus Christ will be ministering His life and
1:46:55
His power to you. Lift your hands for those of you
1:46:57
who are in front. I.
1:46:58
Salute you for coming. Say this after me as loud and as
1:47:00
clear as you can. Say, Lord Jesus, I love you with
1:47:05
all my heart. I believe that you are the Son
1:47:10
of God. I believe that you died for me.
1:47:15
I believe that you arose again for my justification.
1:47:21
Right now I receive Jesus into my heart as my Savior, my Lord,
1:47:29
and my King. I declare that I'm a child of
1:47:34
God, I'm the righteousness of God.
1:47:37
In Christ Jesus, I obtain grace to live the victorious Christian
1:47:42
life, and I go forward ever and backward never.
1:47:47
Amen. Father, thank you so much for my
1:47:49
dear brothers and sisters, the many who have come declaring
1:47:52
Your lordship over their lives according to the authority of
1:47:56
Scripture. I declare their sins forgiven
1:47:58
and I pray that today is a new day for them.
1:48:00
I call them the righteousness of God in Christ.
1:48:03
They are bona fide recipients of eternal life, and I pray the
1:48:07
grace to walk in victory to serve the Lord all the days of
1:48:10
their lives. Let it be released upon them.
1:48:13
I decree and I declare that they go from glory to glory, grace to
1:48:17
grace, for in Jesus mighty name we pray, Amen and Amen.
